SMCJ13CA is a bidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for surge and ESD protection applications. It features a peak pulse power dissipation of 1500 watts at 1 ms pulse width and a working peak reverse voltage of 13 V with 5% tolerance. The device is housed in a compact surface mount SMC (DO-214AB) package and operates over a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. With a peak forward surge current of 200 A and steady state power dissipation of 5.0 W at 75°C lead temperature, this TVS diode provides robust protection for portable communications, computing, and video equipment. The device is lead-free and RoHS compliant.
